Abstract
This splendidly edited book is the first of two volumes tracing the manuscript evolution of Yeats’s early poems. That any working papers should survive from so early a period is something of a miracle, especially given Yeats’s peripatetic life and absentmindedness, and the survival rate is inevitably somewhat patchy. Nevertheless, three substantial versions of Mosada are deposited in Trinity College, Dublin, and no fewer than five versions of The Island of Statues are distributed between Trinity, the National Library of Ireland, and King’s School, Canterbury.
